"That’s okay," said Keith, "We'll get him on another day."
Time begins to tick away and Keith decides he needs to head back to Cedar Lodge. Checking with Adam to see where the hunters will be heading next, he kicks his Polaris ATV into gear and drives off. Keith knows the grounds well and makes it a quick trip back to the main office.
Keith explains that one of the features of Ringneck Ranch is that it is a licensed Controlled Shooting area.
"By being a controlled shooting area, it allows us a more liberal bag limit, and also extends our season" he said.
Another feature that makes it unique to other hunting lodges is that the guests stay right in the hunting area.
"We are set up so a fellow just has to bring his shotgun and clothes. We are very unique because you stay right in the middle of the hunting grounds," he said.
The ranch has been featured on two episodes of ESPN's The Great Outdoors, two episodes of PBS' Cabin Country, was chosen by Fiochhi USA Ammunition as the site for taping The Art and Science of Pheasant Hunting video. Remington's Hunting the Country on TNN and ESPN2's American Expedition have both had the ranch on their programs.
This year there are four programs slated to be filmed at the ranch and a hard back book by Wingshooters World is in production. Despite all the publicity, Keith, Debra, Alan, and Carol all agree that you may arrive the first time as a guest but you will leave as a friend.
